Francis Crick, who famously co-discovered the shape of DNA, once said: "If you want to understand function, study structure." Many decades later, this remains a tenet of biology, chemistry, and materials science.
Entropy, a physical property often explained as "disorder," is revealed as a creator of order with a new bonding theory developed at the University of Michigan and published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Crystals reveal the hidden geometry of molecules to the naked eye. Scientists use crystals to figure out the atomic structure of new materials, but many can't be grown large enough. Now, a team of researchers report a new technique in the January 19 issue of Nature that can discover the crystalline structure of any material.
Lithium-ion batteries are relatively safe, long-lasting, fast charging and better for the environment than non-rechargeable batteries–right- Not quite. The rocking-chair mechanism that allows for commercial power storage generally uses rare earth elements, such as nickel and cobalt.
PRECiV™ software enables users in production, quality control and inspection to make precise, repetitive 2D measurements and obtain results that comply with the latest industrial standards.
Adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) provides fast and sensitive detection of iron in process waters of the water-steam circuit (boiler feed water, makeup water, condensate) in power plants.
Caged or confined machines tend to display stimulating properties by turning input energy into programmed functions.
A novel study in the journal Metals focuses on the importance of bond strength as a significant factor for plasma-sprayed NiCrBSi thin films; the researchers have proposed a unique method reliant on total areas of interlayer pores.

Glitter is often made using microplastics and toxic compounds. This is obviously problematic, as the manufacture of this product can cause plastic pollution and environmental damage. Now, a type of glitter has been produced, which uses materials derived from plants instead of synthetic materials. The research has been published in Nature Materials.
